I grabbed the wine bottle because I think it may be desirable(?) because of the hollow bottom, no embossing.

The label on the [gin?] bottle was a little better before I washed the bottle. What I could make out was GH & L(-) or CH & L(-). Not much to go on but I am sure I'll find out what it used to say. I love the aqua color!

Not sure how I should get the barnacle off of the sign, any tips?

Got the barnacle off! and gave it a cleaning with soap and water.






Edit: I almost forgot!!! I also found a 1928 mercury dime : )

I was going to suggest oxalic acid - but - I wouldn't touch it any more - good job - looks great

Oh Dang! The bottles are beautiful, but that sign ROCKS! Because it is an antique porcelain Copenhagen sign in good shape, it should bring a nice price if you ever sell it! Congrats. Sub 8-)

Fantastic finds! I have yet to find a sign. Im sure I've walked over them but the river isn't kind to such things in my neck of the woods. Good luck and happy hunting!
